As the western-most National Park in the United States, Volcanoes is the second pedal in The Americana Series, and the 6th in the Junior Ranger Series. This fuzz is a departure from the smooth and subtle Eastern cousins, Acadia and Saguaros. Although Volcanoes is nasty at heart, the dynamic tone controls allow for a huge range of sounds that you can make work with your rig.

Power
It is critical that you use a high quality, isolated and filtered power supplies with The Americana Series. Every modern measure was taken to ensure quiet, recording-worthy noise suppression, but low-quality power and power supplies can inject unwanted noise in these effects. Even though we've designed them to play nicely on a daisy chain, we don't recommend it.
